The Pretty Green ‘Ashcroft’ Flight Jacket in Taupe reimagines a timeless aviation classic through a contemporary, ethically conscious lens. Crafted from luxurious faux shearling, it captures the rugged warmth and texture of genuine sheepskin while remaining completely vegetarian.

The off-white borg fleece trim at the collar, cuffs, and hem contrasts beautifully with the taupe exterior, adding both comfort and striking visual appeal. Details such as the zip-through front, belted funnel neck, and borg-lined welt pockets with concealed snap-stud fastenings elevate the look, while the tonal embroidered Pretty Green sleeve logo provides a subtle nod to modern British style. A perfect winter statement piece that combines retro heritage with contemporary sensibility.

The flight jacket’s origins trace back to World War I, when it was designed to keep pilots warm in open cockpits. As aviation advanced, so did its iconic style, the B-3 shearling jacket became a symbol of toughness and masculinity.

By the 1950s, thanks to cultural icons like Marlon Brando and James Dean, it evolved into a rebellious fashion statement. The 1960s youth and music subcultures, from Mods to Rockers and later the bohemian movement, embraced the jacket as a marker of individuality and nonconformity. The shearling flight jacket’s journey from cockpit to counterculture has cemented it as one of menswear’s enduring symbols of freedom, rebellion, and effortless cool.

The Pretty Green men's faux suede shearling flight jacket channels a rich heritage rooted in 1970s fashion—an era of retro cool when musicians and movie icons paired rugged aviator outerwear styles with bellbottom flares and chunky cable knit jumpers. Its timeless blend of attitude and warmth carried seamlessly into the 1990s, reborn through the swagger of Britpop and the unmistakable influence of Liam Gallagher. Today, this mod-infused men’s outerwear classic remains a wardrobe essential, fusing vintage edge with contemporary street-ready indie style.
